Great to meet you!

Battling mental health struggles can be isolating and lonely. You are not alone. As a therapist of 7 years, I help adults dealing with anxiety, OCD, depression, trauma, relational stress, life transitions, boundary issues, shame, and perfectionism. I received my M.A. in Counseling from Northwestern University and am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC). I am trained in different therapy modalities and worked in a hospital system in the PHP and IOP level of care for 3 years.

My approach to therapy

I believe the client is just as important as the therapist in this process, therefore I do not utilize a one-size-fits-all approach. We examine all aspects of a client’s perspective including the systems impacting them. Treating the whole person is important to my therapeutic engagement with clients. For this reason, all the aspects that make up a whole person (mind, body, and spirit) are examined, with appropriate recommendations to engage all the parts that facilitate wellness.

What you can expect from me

I believe in providing evidence-based, effective and high-quality mental health care tailored to each individual. You will work one-on-one to increase understanding of your thoughts and behaviors to improve function and well-being. I will provide you a non-judgmental, compassionate atmosphere to support you on the journey to healthier versions of yourself.
